A recently published report highlighted that Tunisian authorities engaged in dangerous maneuvers during intercepting migrants, with shocking incidents of violence reported, causing many casualties.
The report stated that 189 individuals, including children, died between January and July while attempting to cross the Mediterranean, with another 265 fatalities occurring during interceptions.
Migrants, especially from sub-Saharan regions, face extreme violence in Tunisia, with accounts of security forces stealing their phones and destroying their living quarters.
